Kerstin Krist arrives at the vine-covered Lydstep Old Hall in rural Essex to care for John Cosway, a former mathematical genius, who has been diagnosed with schizophrenia and kept under heavy sedation. John is the sole heir of the immense Cosway estate. As he takes his daily walks or sits quivering in a labyrinthine library, the rest of the family plots their own ways of coming into the fortune. It is classic Barbara Vine-an absolutely enthralling tale that keeps turning and twisting until the very last page.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Barbara Vine\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage Crime\/Black Lizard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/13\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.26w x 0.77d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780307278326\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/04\/2007 pg. 28\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarbara Vine's\u003c\/b\u003e acclaimed novels include \u003ci\u003eA DarkAdapted Eye\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eAnna's Book\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGrasshopper\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Blood Doctor\u003c\/i\u003e.
